I have Windows XP innstalled, along with all programs, settngs and all, on a
40 GB drive, my C: drive.
I now want to completely transfer everthing on the 40 GB Drive to an 80 GB
drive, then remove the 40 GB drive, put the 80 GB drive in it's place as
Primary C: drive, and be able to Boot up again just as if nothing had been
changed.
Is there a proven way to do this?
I know of a program called Ghost that can do it, but I don't have a license
for it.

Norton Ghost and PowerQuest's Drive Image and
Acronis' SomethingOrOther are supposed to do that.
Also Future Systems Solutions' Casper XP If I can't
get DI to work for me, I plan to try Casper since they
have a 30-day free trial download available from their
website (www.FSSDev.com).
